人乳腺癌细胞(MCF-7)中溴代咔唑与雌激素受体和芳香烃受体的交叉作用
Cross-talk of Bromocarbazoles between Estrogen Receptor Pathway and Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor Pathway in Human Breast Cancer Cells (MCF-7 Cells)
-
摘要: 卤代咔唑是一类与二噁英结构类似的杂环芳香烃化合物,在环境和生物体内均有检出。研究表明,溴代咔唑(bromocarbazoles,BCZs)是具有代表性的卤代咔唑,有较强的持久性和生物累积性,且在不同生物体内表现出类二噁英毒性以及内分泌干扰效应,对人类的健康有潜在风险。研究表明BCZs可以在不同细胞中分别激活芳香烃受体(aryl hydrocarbon receptor,AhR)和雌激素受体(estrogen receptor,ER)。乳腺癌的发生发展不仅与ER通路密切相关,也与AhR通路有关,但在乳腺癌细胞中BCZs对2种通路的相互作用机制尚不明确。因此,本研究以BCZs对ER和AhR通路的作用为目标,有助于我们借助不良结局途径(adverse outcome pathway,AOP),从分子层面了解BCZs对乳腺癌细胞毒理学作用机制。实验选取5种BCZs,以ER阳性的人乳腺癌细胞(MCF-7)为研究对象,探究BCZs在MCF-7细胞中对ER和AhR通路的激活作用,并筛选激活能力最强的BCZs,探究2个通路之间的相互作用。结果表明,1,3,6,8-四溴咔唑(1,3,6,8-tetrabromo-9H-carbazole,1368-BCZ)可以同时激活ER和AhR通路,上调ER通路靶基因三叶因子1(trefoil factor 1,tff1)和AhR通路靶基因细胞色素P450酶1A1(cytochrome P450 1A1,cyp1a1)和细胞色素P450酶1B1(cytochrome P450 1B1,cyp1b1)的表达水平;1368-BCZ对ER通路的激活部分依赖于ahr的介导,而干扰ER通路的激活作用后,AhR通路下游代表性目的基因的表达水平提高。因此,1368-BCZ是一种可以同时激活ER和AhR通路的BCZs,且被激活的ER和AhR通路之间存在相互作用。本实验补充了BCZs在ER阳性乳腺癌细胞中的可能作用机制,为新型污染物BCZs的毒性效应机制研究提供了数据支持。Abstract: Polyhalogenated carbazoles are heterocyclic aromatic hydrocarbon compounds with a similar structure to dioxins, which have been detected in environments and organisms. Among them, bromocarbazoles (BCZs) present strong persistence and bioaccumulation potential, and have shown dioxin-like toxicity and endocrine disrupting effects in different organisms, posing potential risks to human health. Studies have shown that BCZs can activate aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) and estrogen receptor (ER) in different types of cells. The ER and AhR pathway are closely related to the occurrence and development of breast cancer. However, the interactions between the ER and AhR pathways induced by BCZs in human breast cancer cells remained unclear. Therefore, the aim of this study is to shed light on the interaction of BCZs with the ER and AhR signaling pathways in breast cancer cells in order to provide a new perspective for clarifying the breast cancer-related adverse outcome pathways that BCZs may trigger. In this study, we selected 5 BCZs to explore the activation effects of BCZs on ER and AhR pathways in ER-positive human breast cancer cells MCF-7. Interactions between the AhR and ER signaling pathways were also studied for BCZs, which has the strongest receptor activation capabilities. The results showed that 1,3,6,8-tetrabromo-9H-carbazole (1368-BCZ) activated both ER and AhR pathways, and upregulated the expression of ER pathway target gene trefoil factor 1 (tff1) and AhR pathway target genes cytochrome P450 1A1 (cyp1a1) and cytochrome P450 1B1 (cyp1b1). The activation of the ER pathway induced by 1368-BCZ was partly dependent on the presence of AhR, while the upregulation of the AhR pathway target genes was further enhanced with the addition of ER blocker. Therefore, 1368-BCZ can activate both the ER and AhR pathways and cause interactions between them. This study supplemented the understanding of the action mechanisms of BCZs in ER-positive breast cancer cells.
